He's brutal but I have this game on a side TV, with no sound. So it's not brutal at all.So Fox decided Harold Reynolds was not acceptable as a baseball announcer/color man but he's OK for FS1? He makes a game unwatchable, at least with the sound on.
I saw him look at the fingers of his pitching hand at the start of this inning, then a walk. Poor guy, people will always suspect blisters.Rich Hill with 7 K's through 3 IP.
Lobaton of taking Koji deep in the 2013 LDS fame.And Lobaton takes Hill deep. Might be a series altering swing.
Cannot complain about Holt, but that is a hasty trade the Sox should not have made.So many ex-Red Sox.
And Melancon may be the victor.
Well, they released Papelbon right after this trade, and did not trust him with the closer role. As much as we do hate HR he is not wrong on this one."that's why they got Mr. Melancon"
HR
1-1
Its like 65% full... I have no idea why they would pick this time, when its not a federal holiday and most people are at work/school.. I would have gone to this game, if it started at a normal time for us in CA....So they schedule a game involving a California team at home to start on a Monday at 1 PM California time, and they aren't streaming it?
With an elbow guard, which was what got hit. The pitch was a strike.Espinosa, on top of the plate to begin with, leans in further for the HBP. Hate that.
Then the umpire with a shit eating grin on his face explains something to Roberts and Roberts just walks away. I think Roberts is a big improvement over Mattingly though.With an elbow guard, which was what got hit. The pitch was a strike.
Maybe Roberts doesn't trust a guy who is barely 20 in an elimination game, so he puts that off as long as he can. Thursday would be elimination also, but it's game 5 of 5, all hands on deck, anything can happen. Kershaw is also significantly better in Dodger Stadium than on the road. Best pitcher of his generation too. Good question though. I wonder if anybody asked Roberts in any pregame talk. They just asked Dusty why he's going with Ross.I really do not understand the Kershaw move. They need to win two games. Wouldn't they be better off with Urias and Kershaw on full rest than Kershaw on short rest and Urias on the road or both Kershaw and Hill on short rest?
